What is Pop Mart?
Ғылым және технология
Blind boxes have taken China's toy scene by storm, and Beijing-based toy firm Pop Mart has grown in popularity as a result.
The idea behind blind boxes is simple: customers buy a box before knowing what the toy inside is.
Its mechanics are similar to the machine-dispensed capsule toys known as gacha or gachapon, or loot boxes that we've come to associate with video games.
Founded in 2010, Pop Mart now operates over 100 shops and over 1,000 vending machines across China, as well as online channels.

About yesterday, I was lifting a very very big box at work when I noticed a picture of one of these dolls on it. It looked to be some kind of robot. It looked odd but at the same time cute. I read the company label and did a little research. The one I saw was apparently part of the Space Molly Soft Drink series. These ones are huge and cost $159. Anyways I might want to buy the Sword and Fairy Chinese traditional one.
If you think about it though blind boxes have always been around. Booster packs for cards are always random. Even before trading card games , just collectible non game trading cards were always around. Getting doubles is not a big deal , because you're supposed to trade them. Even randomized toys aren't even that new a phenomeon. Even in the old days small randomized packets of toys existed too. I remember when I was a kid stuff like mini boglins were bought in randomized packets. And Kinder suprise has always been around , along with Gashapon as mentioned in this video. Although nowdays randomized toys are getting more expensive , so they can be more wasteful in a sense. But in collectible randomized nature , is supposed to promote trading with fellow collectors , hence the phrase trading cards. The only time they really want to ban stuff is when someone seems to making too much money off the stuff ... lol ...
I hope they don’t overdevelop the back stories… it’s better leaving it up to the consumer 100%. Whatever is in the consumers head is probably gonna be better than anything you could try to produce for an international audience..
i wouldve had them all but they're so expensive, abt 20$ on average per box 😭

It’s only $10 in Hong Kong though (81hkd)
Don’t forget Pokémon cards are valued a lot in the older generation and the hollow ones too these collections are not for children,because they don’t have,enough money to buy it if you have more then one child lucky I work so my mum doesn’t need to pay for everything like food and I brought her a new Apple Watch last year so I spend money to buy her birthday gift too I use to not do it because I don’t have a job back then so I can spend some not too much I know how to control my spending buying only what you need.
Oh so it's HongKong.... I 100% gladly to buy more! I love Addams Family ones & All The Creepy Cute!!!!! It's so Gothic you know!

@@RobertFrisburough so in the end, nothing different with movies and the actors..... Nothing different with how China offered their money for countries that ask or not at all & could be use for anything but products & brands & their employees that related have to be from China although it's use & located in different Countries & it's still called China-owned by China themselves. Slickdeals
